Oil exploration in the gulf of Mexico

A calm, smooth sea is pretty boring, so I always look for really windy days on the ocean; they're ideal for adding drama to an offshore shot. Windy days almost always have clouds, too, so that's an added bonus. Of course, if you're looking through a tightly focused lens while your boat or helicopter is being buffeted, it's easy to get seasick. On those days I use up a lot of Dramamine.
